Major Spoiler: Desperate Housewives Trial Reveals Who's Dying on Sunday!
Laurie Holden and Jeffrey DeMunn [Warning: This story contains major spoilers about AMC's The Walking Dead and the comic book series that inspired it. Read at your own risk.] The Walking Dead has continually shocked fans and comic readers alike as the AMC series continues to deviate from Robert Kirkman's source material. Last week's surprising death was a perfect example. After spending two seasons as the group's moral compass, Dale (Jeffrey DeMunn) met his demise far earlier than his comic book counterpart. Because of this, the long-awaited and surprising relationship between Dale and Andrea (Laurie Holden) formed in the comics will never see the light of day on the hit TV series. TVGuide.com caught up with Holden to get her take on the big death and how the group will grieve moving forward. Plus: It's all Carl's fault, right? 3 reasons we're bummed by The Walking Dead's latest death How did you feel about Dale's death? Holden: It was heartbreaking. I didn't know it was coming until a script was delivered to my trailer and I was leafing through it and came to that scene and literally I had the reaction like it was real, like someone I really loved died. I burst into tears and ran out of my trailer and went to my various coworkers and said, "Have you read this? Is this true? Is this true?" I was pretty bereft, I have to admit, for many reasons. To begin with, I love Jeff DeMunn and I enjoyed every moment of working with him. I've done two other movies with him and the third time's a charm. I feel so blessed to have had that experience. But also, I love the Dale-Andrea dynamic and I felt like we had so much more story to explore together and it was cut a bit short. Were you surprised about his death since Andrea and Dale eventually got into a relationship in the comics? Holden: Yeah, because that was always the plan, but it's no secret that the television show does veer off from the graphic novel and it was a creative decision that [executive producers] Glen Mazzara and Robert Kirkman came up with and stood behind. It made sense in terms of story and how we're moving forward. Last year you mentioned that you were excited for the Dale-Andrea relationship and said that the show was going to honor the comics in that regard. At the time, did you think they were going down that path? Holden: Absolutely. Absolutely. This tough thing about our show is that we have to remind ourselves it is a zombie apocalypse, that the rules change, that any character can go at any time and sometimes there are going to be deviations from the source material. This just happened to be the one character I never expected it to happen to. Did AMC's website spoil a major event on The Walking Dead this season? Given all the death as of late, how worried are you about Andrea's fate? Holden: To be honest, I'm not worried. If you read the latest issue of the graphic novel, she's alive and strong. I feel confident that Andrea's going to be around for a while. With the group still divided in terms of Rick (Andrew Lincoln) and Shane (Jon Bernthal), will Andrea side with Shane? Holden: I think she always has, to be honest. Like she said in one of the episodes, it's just his presentation that lacks a little something to be desired. She admires Shane, but isn't exactly fond of the way he's gone about doing things. But the world has changed and he's made some pretty smart moves. Does she think Shane is good or bad for the group? Holden: She thinks he's a great guy, but you have to understand that she's not privy to a lot of his personal conversations with other people. She's not privy to what happened between him and Dale. She's not really aware of the fighting between Rick and Shane. Those are isolated incidences. All Andrea knows is that he's been a really cool cat that really mentored her and showed her how to protect herself and shoot a gun, and sometimes he gets a bit hot headed and she's looking at him like, "Hey, you need to kind of get it together." But other than that I think that she still really believes in him. The Walking Dead Boss: Lori has become Lady Macbeth How does the group handle the death of Dale? Holden: Obviously the death of Dale is very hard on Andrea as it is on Glen (Steven Yeun) more than anybody else in the group. There's a lot of guilt and a lot of regret. She wasn't particularly easy on him for quite some time and Andrea wasn't in a very good head space. When Dale passes, every move that Andrea makes from that point forward is about honoring Dale, and that means being a leader, having a stronger moral compass, being compassionate and really lending her hand more so than she would have before. I remember distinctly for the rest of the season, every single thing that I did before every scene, I thought, "Andrea, you must honor Dale." And if there was ever a caption to describe Andrea's head space, that's it. How will Carl (Chandler Riggs) handle Dale's death since he is partially at fault? Holden: Bless his little heart. There's so much hate for that character right now, and I keep reminding everybody on Twitter that he's just a child. He made a mistake. He's a baby. Give him some slack. The guilt and remorse that that poor child is going to carry, I wouldn't wish that on anyone. So I hope people can understand that he is 12 and forgive him because I don't think that he's going to be able to forgive himself. The Walking Dead airs Sundays at 9/8c on AMC.

Oscar Chat: Understand This Years Best Animated Feature Nominees
When the Academy introduced its nominations lately to find the best Animated Feature, two waves of surprise washed over Oscar audiences: Not only was Pixar overlooked inside the cold the first time within the history, but furthermore two lesser-known films from abroad made the cut inside the category: the noir-y French entry The Kitty in Paris as well as the The the spanish language language-language jazz-romance Chico and Rita. The organization company directors of people films, along with Kung Fu Panda 2 helmer Jennifer Yuh Nelson, among handful of female company company directors nominated this year, spoken with Movieline in regards to the recognition within the Academy, technologies for instance 3-D and motion capture, in addition to their Oscar evening excitement. So understand three in the filmmakers within the animation community who might have to go home getting a trophy on Sunday: For Just About Any Cat in Paris we have Alain Gagnol, who co-directed with Jean-Loup Felicioli, too for Chico and Rita we have Fernando Trueba, who directed along with Tono Errando and Javier Mariscal. (Fellow nominees Chris Burns [Puss in Boots] and Gore Verbinski [Rango] were not available to participate.) Animation nominees appear to offer the most fun within the Academy awards. Exactly what are you searching toward most on Oscar Sunday? GAGNOL: Really, Hollywood might be the the complete opposite of my world, so situations are amazing, incredible, and funny. Nevertheless the most impressive part is always to see, within the achieve of my hands, numerous the most popular company company directors. Scorsese and Spielberg gaveme the need to make movies. They provided the strength to produce my dreams be realized. NELSON: I'm searching toward a lot of people-watching. Along with a weight seriously awesome date while using husband. TRUEBA: Well, being nominated was already a sizable prize for people. I didn't be familiar with animation nominees were supposed to offer the most fun? How will you experience the most effective Picture category being extended to nine films but getting animation ignore? GAGNOL: For a lot of people, animated films aren't genuine cinema. However don't thinkthat might be the issue here. I have to admit thatwithoutyoung children, most grownups won't watch animated movies. Theyare concerned these films won't have anything on their own account, and they're going to be bored. I furthermore think that because of there being no such factor just like a human face in animated cinema, seeing the heavens and stars in live-action films are veryfascinating for your audience, and so they may not think they have people celebrity images for connecting with. NELSON: In my opinion the films nominated are very deserving, that the amount spices or herbs or herbal treatments up. I must see animated films widen in the realm limited to family entertainment and become merely a technique utilized in most ranges of cinema. Once that happens, It may have up regularly in many groups. TRUEBA: I didn't appreciate it. In my opinion [more nominations] can be a wrong decision, and I am unsure anyone who favors it using this method. In my opinion the key prize has lost plenty of his charm. It's almost impossible to know these. Too, lots of. It is better [with] five. Can you start to see the Academys recent rule about motion-capture films so that they can stress traditional hands-attracted animation? GAGNOL: Personal computers are very useful they have a tendency tobe everywhere. But they are perfect, as well as the limits of existence aren't an problem on their own account. Therefore, sometimes people appear tohave beenforgotten on the way. Hands-attracted animation is definately not perfect but we could possess the sensitivityof theanimator. However don'tthink that onekind of animation is way better thanthe otherone. Ultimately, the key thingis the story you need to tell. Personal computers continue being not able to create tales. NELSON: The movies selected show a range of techniques, not just hands-attracted. Three appear to become CG, so its nice to find out that such different films were recognized. But computer or else, these films were created frame-by-frame by artists. Some mo-cap is actually heavily labored by artists that could too be full animation. Whereas other people are very automated. The question then becomes among artistry. TRUEBA: Maybe, animation has today a number of techniques and approaches. And it is sometimes complicated to dictate the recommendations how you can this kind of complex area. But maybe something carried out. Several live-action and animated films nominated this year, including top nominee Hugo, were released in 3-D. Within your view, does 3-D help or hurt a films probability of taking home an Oscar? GAGNOL: I'm not a real great fan of three-D movies. For me personally, it doesn't bring anything interesting to cinema.A correctly-composed picture can offer all the feelings needed with a tale. Each time a movieis good, you will find the sensation to participate it. NELSON: 3-D can be a movie tool you should use or roughed up. Used well, it is a true enhancement in the film. I love seeing the restrictions being pressed how we could simulate an immersive experience. Like multichannel surround sound, immersive picture can certainly have you feeling the film much more. However it must be accomplished well. TRUEBA: I really hate 3-D. This stuff are invented every decade and before lengthy, people lose interest from this. Personally 3-D makes movies lose their character. It's just for children and individuals which go every so often to movies. Real moviegoers do not require 3-D. And personally I am unable to see 3-D. I'm strabic!!! You might might help some moviegoers in finishing their ballots: Who'll win to find the best Animated Online video? GAGNOL: I am sorry I am unable to answer that question because I have not had the opportunity to take a look at these films. NELSON: Oh please, I would be used with a couple of of those people sooner or later. I am not going them mad at me. TRUEBA: La Luna. Who's connected you to definitely certainly the ceremony? GAGNOL: Much like me coming initially from from France, In my opinion my jet lag will probably be with me at night all along. NELSON: My sweet husband will probably be with me at night, making certain I don't trip throughout my heels. Also, since DWA has two films nominated, you will notice a posse of great people including Melissa Cobb producer of KFP2, and Raymond Zibach, the gifted production designer. TRUEBA: My friend and co-director of Chico and Rita, Javier Mariscal, and my partner and producer, Cristina. How are things following this film? What projects will be in the entire shebang? GAGNOL: I am concentrating on a completely new feature film. It's also a thriller for children though yet another fantasy aspect. I have already done the script formore than couple of years, and Jean-Loup has attracted the initial pictures. The knowledge occur in NY. Oneof the fantastic advantagesof making animated movies, as company company directors, is thatwe goes everywhere out of your drawing table. NELSON: I'm developing something, nonetheless its a secret at this time. TRUEBA: I merely finished a completely new movie, The Artist as well as the Model, my first movie in French, featuring Jean Rochefort, Aida Folch and Claudia Cardinale.
